Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a method for producing polytetrafluoroethylene and a composition containing polytetrafluoroethylene.
- Patent Document 1 discloses a method for producing a fluoropolymer, the method comprising emulsion polymerizing one or more fluorinated monomer in an aqueous medium wherein said aqueous emulsion polymerization is carried out in an aqueous medium in the presence of at least one radical initiator and at least one polyfunctional dispersant [dispersant (D)], said dispersant (D):
- Patent Document 1 Japanese Translation of PCT International Application Publication No. 2020-510737
- An object of the present disclosure is to provide a production method capable of producing an aqueous dispersion of polytetrafluoroethylene that is substantially free from dimers and trimers of monomers constituting a polymer used for polymerization of polytetrafluoroethylene.
- the polymer (1) preferably has a weight average molecular weight of 1.4 ⁇ 10 4 or more.
- A is preferably - COOM.
- the modifying monomer is preferably further polymerized.
- the method preferably comprises polymerizing the monomer (1) to obtain a crude composition containing the polymer of the monomer (1), and removing the dimer and the trimer of the monomer (1) contained in the crude composition from the crude composition to obtain the polymer (1) in which the content of the dimer and the trimer of the monomer (1) is 1.0% by mass or less based on the polymer (1).
- the polymer (1) preferably has a weight average molecular weight of 1.4 ⁇ 10 4 or more.
- A is preferably -COCM.
- the polytetrafluoroethylene preferably contains tetrafluoroethylene unit and a modifying monomer unit.
- a content of a dimer and a trimer of the monomer (1) in the polymer (1) is 1.0% by mass or less based on the polymer (1).
- the polymer (2) preferably has a weight average molecular weight of 1.4 ⁇ 10 4 or more.
- A is preferably -COCM.
- the polytetrafluoroethylene preferably contains tetrafluoroethylene unit and a modifying monomer unit.
- a content of a dimer and a trimer of the monomer (2) in the polymer (2) is 1.0% by mass or less based on the polymer (2).
- the present disclosure can provide a production method capable of producing an aqueous dispersion of polytetrafluoroethylene that is substantially free from dimers and trimers of monomers constituting a polymer used for polymerization of polytetrafluoroethylene.
- melt-fabricable means that a polymer can be melted and processed using a conventional processing device such as an extruder and an injection molding machine. Accordingly, a melt-fabricable fluororesin usually has a melt flow rate of 0.01 to 500 g/10 min as measured by the measurement method described below.
- the polytetrafluoroethylene is preferably a fluoropolymer having a content of the tetrafluoroethylene unit of 99 mol% or more based on all polymerization units.
- the content of each monomer constituting the polytetrafluoroethylene can be calculated by a suitable combination of NMR, FT-IR, elemental analysis, and X-ray fluorescence analysis according to the type of monomer.
- organic group means a group containing one or more carbon atoms or a group formed by removing one hydrogen atom from an organic compound.
- Examples of the “organic group” include:
- the organic group is preferably an alkyl group optionally having one or more substituents.
- substituteduent means a group capable of replacing another atom or group.
- substituteduent include an aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a heterocyclic group, an acyl group, an acyloxy group, an acylamino group, an aliphatic oxy group, an aromatic oxy group, a heterocyclic oxy group, an aliphatic oxycarbonyl group, an aromatic oxycarbonyl group, a heterocyclic oxycarbonyl group, a carbamoyl group, an aliphatic sulfonyl group, an aromatic sulfonyl group, a heterocyclic sulfonyl group, an aliphatic sulfonyloxy group, an aromatic sulfonyloxy group, a heterocyclic sulfonyloxy group, a sulfamoyl group, an aliphatic sulfonamide group, an aromatic sulfon
